I really believe that looking after our mental health in these uncertain times is just as important as caring for our physical health. It’s why I was so excited to illustrate this amazing book written by @claredavismentalhealthchats which is full to bursting of insightful advice, practical tips and eye opening research on how to build skills to manage your mental health. Clare has put years of hard work into this book and you can see it in every thoughtful detail. I’ve loved working on this project with @hullo_creative , who have seen this book through every stage from managing and design, to sending it off to the printers.

5 mins into yoga and feeling like a goddess for peeling yourself off the sofa...✨ Here’s one of my favourite illustrations I created for ‘Journey into the Feminine’; by Esther Cowdery.

And finally day 7 of #dream week - ‘The Illusion’. 🐋 It’s been so fun doing this challenge, and having prompts to inspire me every day. Having said that, I’m off to enjoy the rest of my bank holiday weekend in front of Netflix with a glass of wine..Happy Easter everyone! #dreamweek2020 #theillusion #dreamweekchallenge #whale #watercolour #paint #ink #island #illusion #art #illustration #water #ocean #digital #digitalart #design #sketch #drawing https://www.instagram.com/p/B-4_0XaprOt/?igshid=1c3zj1xkwecr7

Day 6 of #dreamweek is ‘The Nightmare’. This is probably one of my most reoccurring nightmares... #dreamweek2020 #illustration #art #dreamweekchallenge #nightmare #thenightmare #intruder #scary #shadow #light #ink #paint #digital #people #sketch #dreaming #graphicnovel https://www.instagram.com/p/B-2Nkq4pe96/?igshid=ezqkhrfxm0xb

Day 4 of #dreamweek - The Wolf. I really like the quote “Feed your good wolf” (I won’t attempt to explain the meaning behind it here after a beer, but you should look it up if you’re interested) so I’ve gone for a bit of a play on that idea. Had a bit of a creative block with this one after a long week, but finally got it to a point I’m half happy with! #dreamweekchallenge #dreamweek2020 #thewolf #wolves #wolf #feedyourgoodwolf #paint #illlustration #art #digital #sketch #drawing #ink https://www.instagram.com/p/B-xXGFupwWs/?igshid=1u29rxpylm7ox

Day 3 of #dreamweek is ‘The Spirit Guide’. Thought I was going to struggle to fit this one in today, but I ended up really enjoying it 🦌💫 #dreamweekchallenge #dreamweekchallenge2020 #day3 #thespiritguide #deer #forest #spirit #moss #antlers #illustration #sketch #paint #digital #art https://www.instagram.com/p/B-vEXfpp2rE/?igshid=kuw1yi1qyt79

Day 2 of #dreamweek2020 The theme today was ‘The Door’. I’m liking the sleepy, dreamy feel of using dark backgrounds for these. #dreamweekchallenge #dreamweekchallenge2020 #dreamweek #day2 #thedoor #sleep #water #girl #hair #illustration #sketch #paint #digital #art https://www.instagram.com/p/B-sRRzCJepF/?igshid=fz0g0tc0qaxx

I’m giving #dreamweekchallenge a go this week! Today’s prompt is ‘Omen’. I liked the idea that there can be good or bad omens, and magpies seemed like a good choice for their mystery and ambiguity. Did anyone else grow up with that superstitious rhyme “one for sorrow, two for joy...”? It’s been a long holiday from Instagram, so I’m going to try my best to see this challenge through, even if it means posting some half finished doodles!🤞 . #dreamweekchallenge2020 #dreamweek #omen #illustration #art #girl #magpie #birds #window #dream #paint #sketch #drawing https://www.instagram.com/p/B-pwr07JkmG/?igshid=pwul03vsc0oq
